  • Scott Adsit: …Careful
    Scott Adsit: …careful. And fun. But there’s nothing like performance going on anywhere. My parents didn’t listen to music. They didn’t obsess on anything apart from work and their kids, pretty much. Andrew Clark: You went to Columbia College in Chicago for Film, initially. Was the goal to be a filmmaker at first? SA: Yeah. I went to my dad’s college in Green Castle, Indiana for a semester and realized that I didn’t want to be my dad. Then I went to Columbia, which is like a great art school in downtown Chicago. It wasn’t a great school when I went there. It’s become a great school. It’s become a great, wide school, but the theater department there was always great, and run by really talented people. A great thing there was, you could not be a teacher if you were not already working in the field you’re teaching in. You had to have a job to have that job, which is cool, but also kind of cruel, I think, because it’s a cruel business, and if you lose one job, it’s like, “Oh, you’re done.” AC: Really? Wow. You had some pretty great instructors, but when did you kind of get the comedy bug? How did you sort of fall into that? SA: In junior high. There was an acting class that taught through improv, somehow. There was a teacher who was named Karin Little, who was a beautiful redhead who had been a Playmate. She was a centerfold in Playboy, and she had found herself teaching drama in a junior high.

  • The Harold: a Revolutionary Form That Changed
    THE HAROLD: A REVOLUTIONARY FORM THAT CHANGED IMPROVISATIONAL THEATRE & AMERICAN COMEDY A Dissertation Presented to The Faculty of the Graduate School At the University of Missouri In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By MATT FOTIS Dr. M. Heather Carver, Dissertation Supervisor MAY 2012 © Copyright by Matt Fotis 2012 All Rights Reserved The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the dissertation entitled THE HAROLD: A REVOLUTIONARY FORM THAT CHANGED IMPROVISATIONAL THEATRE & AMERICAN COMEDY Presented by Matt Fotis A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. Professor M. Heather Carver Professor David Crespy Professor Cheryl Black Professor Cornelius Eady ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation would have never happened without the help, support, and encouragement of numerous people. First and foremost I want to thank my committee— Heather Carver, David Crespy, Cheryl Black, and Cornelius Eady—for their guidance, questions, epiphanies, and good humor, without which I would not be writing this thank you. I want to thank Ann Haugo, John Poole, and Liz Mullenix for first beginning this journey with me. Of course many thanks go out to Charna Halpern, Ted Flicker, and all the generous improvisers who agreed to be interviewed for this project, as well as the countless improvisers who simply took the time to informally discuss improv with me. I would be nowhere without the teachers that taught me how to improvise and the students who continue to teach me. My beautiful wife, whom I first got to know through improvisation, thank you for your love, support, and patience…and for usually laughing at my jokes…and for telling me when I’m not funny.
